Guys..
I don't remember exactly what that called.. but its memory miss-alocation may be its call MEMORY BLEEDING.
Its sorta Segmentation fault in linux
..
So reason can be
1.faulty programming ! (ie bad algo )
For first if you getting the error message only with one program then its the program .. else the hardware.
2. Bad hardware... ie. HD or RAM !
Try repairing and checking the HD and also RAM !
Reinstalling will help only when your HD is bad / had problem !
Well.. ..
That's my little piece of advice !
